The problem is that both the management and Unions did not think that this would be a large NO vote...they probably thought that , at worst, it would be a close run thing. Until about 4 weeks ago I would have agreed with them, but the way that subsequent briefings have been handled coupled with rock-bottom morale and general p*ssed off-ness with Barron and his cronies means that this only going to go one way.
Radarspod, no this is not a Vote NO forum...but neither is it a Vote Yes forum mate. You can argue that eglnyt has brought reasoned argument from your side (yes, we all know what side your bread is buttered...nothing wrong with that, merely observation)...others would say that it is blind defence of an indefensible proposition. You may, of course, say the same about "our" standpoint...democracy in action
